he may say i am an obama puppet. more than he does i disagree with my party and believe that insurance companies should not deny people health coverage because they have pre-existing conditions. i also think that as a first step to get our fiscal housein order read to cut spending. there are certain vantage of commons and i think are important. i think that does not make me someone who believes or is a big spender. you may call me that. i also think we need to cut the increases in medicare cost, none of which would impact the benefits themselves. may say that i am in favor of cutting 716 billion, but there are ways to do that without cutting benefits. you voted for the same cuts except he wants to privatize medicare. i am seeking to go to a place called washington which is not honest but a place where everybody place the blame game which means that all of the democratic leaders think that all the problems are caused by the republicans and dollar republican leaders think of all the problems are caused by the timber cr

the case for obama and particularly the case for obama on the economy more clearly than anyone else has on the campaign. >> no president, no president, not me, not any of my predecessors, no one could have fully repaired all the damage that he found in just four years. when president barack obama took office, the economy was in free fall, it had just shrunk. we were losing 750,000 jobs a month. the are we doing better today? the answer is yes. >> and we should say, we are actually back now to where we were when obama got in office. but do you think bill clinton is right there? did obama do all that could have been done? >> well, i think he did all that could have been done that the congress would let him do. with hind sight, the stimulus package should have been bigger, but at the time it was put together, there were two things that were constraining it. one was we didn't know how bad the economy was at that moment. it was still getting worse. but nobody knew how much worse it was getting. and the other was sort of sticker shock. it was a big number and the congress wasn't prepared

president obama called donald trump small business. that's so foolish, it's not worth talking about. i live in a world with my four restaurants, and i tell you it's very, very difficult. we can't afford anymore taxes or regulation and people sticking their hands in the pie. we can't raise prices. talk about kids going to college, why go to college and spend $85,000 on a college education if you can't get a job? it's insane. that's what they are missing. the american people won tonight. we got a clear choice. double down on how bad obama is or look for a new vision. neil: you know, ed, quickly, i talked to a few folks who were surprised at what they consider governor romney dialing back a little bit, the size of the tax cut, even though it's 20% across the board for all income groups. he's taken away so many deductions, writeoffs, ect., and now they say, hell, i'm not getting a break at all. i know what governor romney's trying to do, reach out to the middle class, saying he's not an elitist or favor the rich, but could that backfire on

president obama could change course. whoever is president needs to change course, because if we do not, the problems in europe could happen here. >> we will go through that period of time and talk about some of the issues of 9/11 and the wars and the tax cuts and the recession of 2008, but let me take you back to 1992 first. what caused you at the time, because it will be relevant, what caused you to leave a very comfortable life, two businesses that you had founded and had done very well and that you had passed on, or one of them that you had passed on, what caused you to jump into presidential politics then? >> every generation in history has worked and sacrificed to lead a better country to their children and grandchildren and future generations. we are spending their money. we are now even much more spending their money, and we are leaving them a mess that will be very difficult to deal with, and if we are in that week, just think of who will want to take us over, and the last thing i ever want to see is to see our c
